Bypassing OpenVPN for certain domains?

[jmccusker]

Is it possible to configure the OpenVPN to bypass certain domains from all devices connected to the router? I have the AC68P. My issue is that services like Hulu and Netflix block the known gateways so I'm forced to go off the VPN for these services. Can I configure the AC68P (380.61-merlin) to bypass the VPN for a list of specific domains?

Thanks.

I am trying to figure out the same problem. I found this which looks promising:

Note the Policy rules section where you can tell a device to not use VPN (say, your media player) but instead, go directly through the WAN port (Your ISP). Be mindful if you have any other services on your media player running that you would not want travelling unencrypted from your house.

auslin - Thanks for the link. Now, if I can get the IP's of Hulu's servers I think I could follow the [c] suggestion:

source IP 192.168.1.0/24 destination IP 0.0.0.0 lface VPN <== send all client traffic to VPN (default)
source IP 192.168.1.0/24 destination IP xx.xx.xx.xx/zz lface WAN

Now, if I can get the CIDR range for the Hulu servers and Netflix servers I should be able to setup policies to allow them to use my normal WAN network and bypass the VPN. The trick is to come up with one or more CIDR's that'll cover all of the IP's that Hulu & Netflix use.
